What Customers Are Saying
The product has mixed reviews. Many users find it easy to program and appreciate its ability to control up to 4 watering zones with customizable schedules. However, a significant number have experienced issues such as stuck valves, leaks, and the timer failing prematurely. The quality and durability of the product seem to be a common concern, with some users needing to replace it multiple times. Overall, the timer works well for some, but the high failure rate makes it difficult to recommend unreservedly.

Would Not RecommendBought these 3 times. Work for about 2 seasons. Better than some other brands that last 1 season. Still manual water but timed comes on and valve sticks, no water . Tried the method of turning off water and turning on timer and slowly opening water. It did fix the manual setting but not timed.
DOES NOT LAST
Would Not RecommendI have been buying these every 2 years! The DO NOT LAST. I remove these from my hookups at the end of the season and reconnect them in the spring. It never fails that every time i reconnect them they end up not working but a couple weeks. Somehow its like water gets behind the screen and you can view the screen. This is #4 that ive bought in the last 4 years and i am not doing it again. At first i thought it was a battery issue, but its definitely not the batteries!

Menlor 4 output
Would RecommendThe Menlor 4 Output Port is a fantastic product. The timer is easy to program and when intermittent use is needed the "manual" mode is easy to use. This is our third replacement. It all fairness we keep 4 hoses attached and use it 365 days a year. The he spigot it is attached to is on the north facing side of the house, so it does not get very much sun or weather. The biggest issue is the threaded part cracks or breaks with the slightest pressure. We do need to remove hoses on occasion and over...
